WHEELS AND TIRES REMOVAL/INSTALLATION
^ The removal and installation procedures for the wheels and tires are not mentioned in this section. When a wheel is removed, retighten it to 89 - 117 Nm (9 - 12 kgf-m, 66 - 86 ft. lbs.).

BRAKE LINES DISCONNECTION/CONNECTION

Caution Brake fluid will damage painted surfaces. If brake fluid gets on a painted surface, wipe it off immediately.

^ Tighten the brake pipe flare nut by using the Special Service Tool (SST) (49 0259 770B). Be sure to modify the brake pipe flare nut tightening torque to allow for use of a torque wrench-SST combination.
^ If any brake line has been disconnected anytime during the procedure, add brake fluid, bleed the brakes, and inspect for leakage after the procedure has been completed.

CONNECTORS DISCONNECTION
^ Disconnect the negative battery cable before doing any work that requires handling of connectors. Connect the negative battery cable only after the work is completed.

ABS/TCS COMPONENTS OPERATIONS
^ Make sure that there are no diagnostic trouble codes in the ABS/TCS memory after working on ABS/TCS components. If there are any codes in the memory, erase them.
